Dear Friends and Colleagues:
Santa Clara University's Leavey School of Business, Stanford University's Technology Venture Program, and the University of Tokyo are delighted to announce that submissions are now being accepted for Stanford University’s sixth annual Conference on Japanese Entrepreneurship, to be held on June 9-10, 2014, at Stanford University.
The theme of this conference is "Entrepreneurial Effects: the consequences of entrepreneurial development across the Pacific Rim." In our view, while scholars of entrepreneurship take account of national contexts in entrepreneurial research, we believe it has become increasingly important to understand not only how entrepreneurs influence economic and institutional changes within national borders, but also how different entrepreneurial environments across national borders affect new ventures, influence policy efforts, and drive institutional development and change.
Our conference will feature, as before, papers selected from the management, strategy, organizations, political science and economics literatures. Papers selected will reflect original contributions to the emerging field of entrepreneurship theory and will generally feature Japan as an empirical laboratory. Other relevant empirical contexts will be considered. Past conferences have featured high-quality contributions on issues related to entrepreneurship, institutions, and Japan, such as empirical studies, case studies, political and social institutional studies in Japan, and new research methodology including experimental design.
Researchers are invited to submit abstracts for papers related to the conference theme, and then plan to attend. The STAJE dates of June 9-10 are timed for the beautiful early summer scenery in Northern California.
Abstracts will be accepted between now and March 30, 2014. Early and developmental work is encouraged. Accepted abstracts will be notified by April 10 and will need to submit conference papers or presentations by May 15, 2014.
